About this Event
Get ready for Paramount Jazz! Our 10-piece jazz orchestra is coming to PRJC’s Rosensteel Hall. We have reed and brass sections (3 saxes, 2 cornets, trombone) and a rhythm section (piano, drums, tuba and banjo) for that vintage sound. Paramount plays from original stock music charts used by bands of the 1920s and 1930s, as well as our flavor of toe-tappin’ popular songs from the era.
For years, the band entertained monthly at the Potomac Grill in Rockville, and annually at the Glen Echo Folk Festival and the Baltimore Vintage Record Club. Other avenues have included Alfio’s la Trattoria restaurant, many private parties, dances and retirement communities. Currently, Paramount is feature regularly at Hank Dietle’s Tavern.
You’ll hear 2-beat syncopated traditional “hot” jazz from the Prohibition era to the early swing music that preceded Big Band style in the 1940s. This 10-piece orchestra will fill Rosensteel Hall with exciting music familiar to anyone who has listened to radio’s Hot Jazz Saturday Night. So get out your spats and cloche hats. You won’t sit still at this “Speak-Easy”! Are you ready to dance to some hot jazz and early swing? See you there!
Rosensteel Hall is a few blocks away from the Forest Glen metro, has plenty of parking, ample seating, and a great dance floor. The cash bar also has snacks.
